The need for business cases is often taken for granted. Unfortunately, business cases are often taken for granted as well. In many instances, they are designed to reach pre-ordained conclusions, or justify a preferred course of action.

It doesn’t need to be this way, and good, well-crafted business cases can be important decision tools to guide and support strategic decision making.

In this presentation Mark Mullaly (LinkedIn profile) author of Researching the Value of Project Management dives in to what makes an exceptional business case, and how to build one.

How can we trust people we don’t know to perform transactions correctly, completely and accurately on the Internet?

The answer to that, at least for now, is the Blockchain.

The Blockchain is more than simply the mechanism by which Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other digital currencies function.

Blockchain has worked its way into many organizations, primarily financial, but also into supply chains and any other form of business that conducts transactions.

So what does that have to do with the business analyst other than finding requirements for Blockchain? Blockchain technology has amazing potential: it could create entirely new foundations for global financial, economic and social systems.

In this webinar Steven discusses the current usages of Blockchain and its potentialities. It also addresses how the business analyst can fit in and take advantage of the Blockchain.

Topics:

• the Blockchain is more than Bitcoin
• using Blockchain technology as a transaction ledger
• current uses of Blockchain technology
• the business analyst’s application of Blockchain technology
• the future of Blockchain technology and how the business analyst fits in
